Must-see in Bangkok: the Grand Palace and three major temples.
The Grand Palace and surrounding temples are easy to visit on your own, but to truly understand the deep connection between Buddhism and the Thai monarchy in daily life, a guided tour in Japanese is recommended. This tour includes visits to the stunning Grand Palace, Wat Phra Kaew (Emerald Temple), Wat Pho (Reclining Buddha and Thai massage headquarters), and Wat Arun (Temple of Dawn).
You'll also experience local transport like boats and tuk-tuks, and feel the energy of Bangkok's streets, temples, and markets. The tour starts with a hotel pickup*1 and is great for photography in the cooler morning hours.
Perfect for those with limited time on the last day*2, adding extra memories to your Bangkok visit!
*1: Pickup is limited to certain areas.
*2: Please leave your luggage at the hotel before joining.
